What is Mobile Device Management?

Thanks to Mobile Device Management (MDM), you and your IT managers retain control of your company’s mobile device landscape. A good MDM solution with numerous intelligent, centralised functions including antivirus and theft protection enables your company to manage iOS and Android mobile devices effectively and securely. In the Layered Security concept, Mobile Device Management creates an important defence ring that enhances the protection of your static endpoints in a practical way.

Why MDM is important

Cyber attacks are becoming more and more common. Hackers have a particularly easy time of it with smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices that are often inadequately protected. Almost 2.5 million new Android malware strains in 2015 already represents a new record. Nevertheless, G DATA security experts have observed a rapid increase in new malware in the first half of 2016. The forecast for 2016 correspondingly reckons on over 4 million new Android malware strains.

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) or consumerization means devices being used partly for business, partly for personal use. This IT concept is particularly susceptible to malware attacks. How do you protect your company from these dangers?
